This 2017 Ford has 7 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 15,633 miles. The recurring tyre failures and a dangerous brake lever advisory also raise significant concerns.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 24,710 miles over 9 years, with a suspiciously low 99 miles recorded between Jan 2017 and Mar 2021, and only 131 miles between Mar 2021 and Mar 2022.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Nov 2025): Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 24,710 miles over 9 years (expected 65,014 miles).
- Mileage anomalies: 99 miles recorded between Jan 2017 and Mar 2021, 131 miles between Mar 2021 and Mar 2022.
- Dangerous defect: Offside Front Tyre worn close to legal limit (Oct 2024) escalated to DANGEROUS (Nov 2025).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-11-10, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
- No Cat N/S write-off markers on DVLA data.
- No recurring failures on major safety systems (brakes, suspension) after the initial dangerous advisory.
